Default F-14 squadrons removing refueling cover plate?

Why are the F-14 squadrons currently removing the plate covering the
refueling probe?
I'm assuming they're ripping off in the slipstream or something, but
wouldn't it make more sense, since they're employed by the Federal
Gov't., to have some type of really expensive beefing-up kit to bolt
them on stronger?
